[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a wound cleaning device, comprising: a cleaning head 11 and a body 12; the cleaning head 11 includes a shower head 111 and a soap dish 113, the shower head 111 is provided with a spray hole and a receiving cavity, the soap dish 113 is installed in the receiving cavity of the shower head 111, the soap dish 113 is provided with a brush 112 and a receiving compartment for holding soap 114; the body 12 includes a housing 121, the housing 121 is provided with a drive mechanism and a water supply pipe 122, the output shaft 1245 of the drive mechanism is connected to the cleaning head 11 and can drive the cleaning head 11 to perform reciprocating circumferential oscillation, and the water supply pipe 122 is connected to the cleaning head 11 through a flexible water pipe 13.

[0038] This invention's cleaner integrates a shower head 111, soap 114, and a brush 112 into one unit. Combined with a gun-style handheld drive tool featuring a reciprocating circular oscillation function, the drive motor 123 mimics the manual application motion of a human to drive the shower head, soap 114, and brush 112, achieving biomimetic application, brushing, and rinsing actions for effective and rapid treatment of dog bites. There is no need for a person to hold the soap 114; the drive mechanism causes the soap 114 and brush 112 to oscillate reciprocally, thoroughly cleaning deep into the wound to remove rabies virus, leaving no blind spots and effectively reducing the incidence of rabies infection. Furthermore, the combination of the brush and solid soap provides pressure and friction during the cleaning process, ensuring more thorough contact with the wound and deeper, more complete disinfection.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the soap box 113 is provided with protruding ribs 1132. The protruding ribs 1132 protrude towards the receiving compartment and are arranged along the axis of the soap box 113. When the soap 114 is installed into the soap box 113, the protruding ribs 1132 evenly arranged on the inner wall are stuck on the outer wall of the soap 114 to prevent it from falling off during reciprocating swinging and to ensure the installation stability of the soap 114.

[0040] Furthermore, the wound cleaner also includes a box-removal hook 115, which is arch-shaped. The open end of the box-removal hook 115 is bent inward to form a retaining pin. A retaining ring is provided on the inner side of the soap box 113 to block the soap 114 for easy removal. The retaining ring has a through hole in the middle. A box-removal pull hole 1131 is provided on the outer wall of the soap box 113. When it is necessary to replace the soap 114, press the box-removal hook 115 to make the retaining pin engage with the box-removal pull hole 1131, and then pull the soap box 113 outward. Under the action of the retaining ring, the soap 114 is pulled out together. At this time, the soap 114 is pushed out through the through hole in the middle of the retaining ring on the back, and a new soap 114 is replaced.

[0041] This invention provides various cleaning heads 11 tailored to different locations and sizes of wounds:

[0042] In one implementation, such as Figure 3 As shown, the soap dish 113 is used to install cylindrical soap 114, the washing head 11 is circular, and the water spray hole is arranged outside the accommodating cavity. This type of washing head 11 is used for wounds with small areas in common areas, such as small wounds on the back of the hand, arm, etc.

[0043] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the soap dish 113 is used to hold a ring-shaped soap 114, the washing head 11 is circular, and the water spray holes are arranged inside the accommodating cavity. This type of washing head 11 is used for small wounds in unconventional areas, such as small wounds on fingers or toes.

[0044] In another embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning head 11 is provided with multiple soap trays 113, which are used to hold square soaps 114. The cleaning head 11 is square, and the water spray holes are arranged on the outside of the receiving cavity. This type of cleaning head 11 is used for wounds with large areas in common areas, such as large wounds on the back of the hand or arm.

[0045] Depending on the location, size, depth, and shape of the wound, different cleaning heads 11 are selected to rinse the wound, which can thoroughly clean the rabies virus from deep wounds, leaving no dead corners and effectively reducing the incidence of rabies virus infection.

[0046] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a drive motor 123 and a transmission unit 124. The transmission unit 124 includes a drive gear 1242, a driven gear 1241, a crank 1243, a tripod, and an output shaft 1245. The drive gear 1242 and the driven gear 1241 mesh with each other.

Each driven gear 1241 is connected to a crank 1243. The three cranks 1243 are mounted on the three corners of the triangle 1244. The output shaft 1245 is provided at the other end of the triangle 1244.

[0047] The drive shaft of the drive motor 123 drives the drive gear 1242 at the center of the drive shaft to rotate the three driven gears 1241 that mesh with it. One end of each of the three driven gears 1241 drives a crank 1243, which is then connected to the three cranks 1243 through a triangular plate 1244. When the three cranks 1243 rotate, the triangular plate 1244 oscillates in a reciprocating circular motion, and the output shaft 1245 drives the cleaning head 11 to perform the same mechanical motion to fit the shape of the wound.

[0048] like Figure 7 As shown, the main working principle of this cleaner consists of input and output sections, with the input section further divided into power input and water input. The power supply is provided by 220V AC, converted to corresponding low-voltage DC by an external switching power adapter, and connected to the water-electricity separator 2 via an aviation-grade waterproof power plug. The water source is provided by a water heater / storage appliance with a mixing valve, which is connected to the corresponding interface of the water-electricity separator 2 via a metal threaded hose. After the water and power sources converge into the water-electricity separator 2, the water supply pipe 122 and the power cord are connected to the gun-type handheld drive tool (body 12) from the output end of the water-electricity separator 2 via a metal threaded hose.

[0049] The output section is divided into water source output and motion output. After water and electricity enter the gun-type drive tool, the water supply pipe 122 is tightly connected to the internal water pipe elbow. The other end of the elbow is connected to the water inlet of the cleaning head 11 through the external flexible water pipe 13. The water source flows to the cleaning head 11 and is sprayed out from the spray hole of the cleaning head 11. After the power supply enters, it is connected to the DC drive motor 123 through internal wires and a switch. The drive motor 123 drives the cleaning head 11 to perform reciprocating circular oscillation, fitting the shape of the wound, and thus thoroughly rinsing the wound.

[0050] Based on the aforementioned wound cleaning device, the present invention also proposes a cleaning apparatus, such as... Figure 8 As shown, it includes: a base 5, a pole 4 and an auxiliary frame 3. The lower end of the pole 4 is mounted on the base 5, and the upper end of the pole 4 is mounted on the auxiliary frame 3. The wound cleaner is mounted on the auxiliary frame 3.

[0051] like Figure 9 , Figure 10As shown, the auxiliary frame 3 includes lever arms 33, and two adjacent lever arms 33 are connected by a rotating unit 31. The rotating unit 31 includes a handle 311, a spring 312, a compression spring 313, a ball bearing 314, and a sleeve. The end of the first lever arm 33 of the two adjacent lever arms 33 is provided with a threaded hole. The handle 311 passes through the spring 312 and the bushing 316 of the second lever arm 33 in sequence and is connected to the threaded hole. The shoulder of the first lever arm 33 is provided with a ball groove 315. The compression spring 313 and the ball bearing 314 are provided between the bushing 316 of the second lever arm 33 and the shoulder of the first lever arm 33. The ball bearing 314 rests on the ball groove 315. In this embodiment, the auxiliary frame 3 is provided with 6 rotating units 31. Each rotating unit 31 can change the direction of the lever arm 365 degrees. With the auxiliary frame 3, wounds in any location can be cleaned freely, and the direction of the lever arm 33 and the brush head can be adjusted according to the position of the wound.

[0052] like Figure 10 As shown, the outer casing 121 is provided with a slot 125, and the auxiliary frame 3 is provided with a claw unit 32 for holding the slot 125. The claw unit 32 includes a clamp seat 321, a spring 322, a latch 323, and a handle 324. The right end of the clamp seat is rotatably connected to the right end of the spring, the left end of the clamp seat is rotatably connected to the lower end of the handle, and the latch is rotatably connected to the upper end of the handle. The left end of the spring has an upward hook, and the latch can engage with the hook of the spring.
